hey folks!

I have not been up to write ebuilds yet.. and maybe somebody can do it in 2 minutes.. :roll:

memtop looks very nice and maybe some of you also desire to have it in portage...

Cool program, but it is only a single python file. If the author decides not to package it, I'm not sure if we should.

looks similar to this one - http://www.pixelbeat.org/scripts/ps_mem.py

There's absolutely no need for an ebuild.
Just copy the file to /usr/local/bin.
Then make it executable.
Run it <progrname>.py in a console.
ps_mem.py | less is very good.
memtop I don't think works well.
